When we are to divide the line segment such that the ratio is 1:2, there are actually 3 parts of the segment. First, we determine the distance between the coordinates and divide the distance by 3. Then, we add the quotient to the x-coordinate.
x-coordinate: (2 - 9) / 3 = -7/3
y-coordinate: (6 - 3 ) / 3 = 1
Adding them to the coordinates of a,
x - coordinate: (9 - 7/3) = 20/3
y - coordinate: (3 + 1) = 4
Thus, the coordinates are (20/3, 4).
X + 13 = -4
x = -4 - 13
x = - 17
I am thinking it is the first one..solution is -17
Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
use formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 12^2 = 13^2
a^2 + 144 = 169
- 144 -144
a^2 = 25
sqrt sqrt
a = sqrt (25)
a = 5
The answer is 8/10 and that simplified is 4/5
